Thoth near Khemenu, a city dedicated to the worship of Thoth. This cemetery also featured extensive underground passageways.[86]

Also in Mexico archaeologists have recently discovered the entrance to a cave complex in front of the Temple of Quetzalcoatl at Teotihuacan, a pre-Columbian pyramid complex that was dedicated to the worship of Quetzalcoatl and his close associate Tlaloc. (Tlaloc is also associated with comets and destruction by a rain of fire.) Teotihuacan’s great Pyramid of the Sun was also built over a cave and Hermes mother Maia gave birth to him in a cave.

Thus a clearer picture is emerging about the message that these ancient myths may encode. They suggest that the sun enters a new highly active period every 12,500 years that coincides with the return of the green comet Machholz as it passes near the Pleiades. During this time the sun, covered in sunspots, emits super solar flares that are dangerous to life on Earth and could melt ice sheets, set forests ablaze and cause the ocean to boil. The only refuge is underground or in caves.

14. The Galactic Center and the Blue Star Kachina

The geologic evidence seems to support that there were both a super solar flare and a comet impact event around 10,500 BC. Yet how could such rare events occur simultaneously? Could both of these events have been caused by a third outside force: a massive eruption from the center of our galaxy? Physicist Paul LaViolette thinks that was precisely the case.

In his 1983 Ph.D. dissertation, Dr. Paul LaViolette argued that the megafaunal extinctions and other changes around the time of the Younger Dryas were caused by an eruption of cosmic rays from the center of our galaxy. This galactic superwave pushed large amounts of “cosmic dust and cometary debris into the solar system and triggered a period of elevated solar flare activity.”[87]

Astronomers have witnessed core explosions known as gamma ray bursts from the centers of many galaxies. They usually appear blue in color. According to Dr. LaViolette the galactic core explosion from our own galaxy would appear to people on Earth as the appearance of a new bright blue star at the galactic center, which is located between the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpio. Depending on the intensity of the outburst it could have been visible during the day as well.

The Hopi Indians, who shared the Mesoamerican belief in a series of world ages called Suns, had a legend that the Fourth Sun would end and the Fifth Sun begin once a bright blue star was seen in the heavens. Known as the Blue Star Kachina, this was believed to also bring a “Day of Purification.” Could this be a reference to a galactic core explosion?

Yet according to Aztec belief, the Fourth Sun ended and the Fifth Sun began in 1011 AD. Did something happen in the year 1011 AD that corresponded with Aztec prophecies about how and when the Fourth Sun would end?

In 1011 AD Chinese astronomers recorded the appearance of a “guest star” in their constellation known as the Rice Ladle. This constellation corresponds to our asterism called the Milk Dipper that is part of the constellation Sagittarius. As noted previously, the galactic center is located between Sagittarius and Scorpio.  Thus was this “guest star” a minor eruption from the galactic center or perhaps simply a blue supernova or comet that appeared nearby?

Interestingly, the Aztecs carved the Milk Dipper asterism into the flange of their famous Aztec Calendar Stone or Stone of the Fifth Sun.[88] This strongly suggests they thought this event was significant to the beginning of the Fifth Sun. They also carved a glyph that corresponded to the year 1011 AD as the year the Fifth Sun began. According to Aztec legends, the Fourth Sun ended with a catastrophe that included a flood and the sky falling.

Coincidentally, just three years later in 1014 AD the Anglo Saxon Chronicles describe a tsunami hitting the British Isles:

“On the eve of St. Michael’s day came the great sea-flood, which spread wide over this land, and ran so far up as it never did before, overwhelming many towns, and an innumerable multitude of people.”

Astronomer Dallas Abbott of the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University discovered that this tsunami was likely caused by an impact of a comet fragment around the mid-Atlantic ridge and produced tsunamis that reached as far south as the Caribbean and South America. Thus, Aztec stories of the sky falling and a great flood are supported by scientific evidence. The fact that these events occurred so soon after the appearance of a guest star near or in the galactic center is the likely reason the Aztecs believed the Fourth Sun had ended and the Fifth Sun had begun. Yet apparently the Maya and Hopi did not agree that these events were severe enough to represent the end of a world age and continued to await the Fifth Sun.

This serves as a good reminder that the interpretation of ancient prophecies and myths is not simple and errors are quite easy to make. It does appear that the return of the comet Machholz is a good match for the return of Quetzalcoatl as predicted in the Mayan book Chilam Balam of Chumayel. Two other green comets appeared during this period but none passed by the Pleiades nor did their orbital periods coincide with a known disaster in Earth’s history. Thus comet Machholz seems to fit the bill.

Yet we must continue to look for other signs that corroborate these findings to see how well they coincide with the ancient myths. We must study other ancient prophecies and predictions to see if they, too, support these results.

15. Decoding the Mayan Flood Myth

If one accepts the premise that mythology is astronomy in disguise then what are the possible astronomical underpinnings of the Mayan Flood Myth, which includes the decapitation of a cosmic crocodile
