MESSAGE IN THE SKY he discovery of this 13,880 BC century-long solar event validates the significance of a date encoded in prehistoric constellation lore. In 1976, | discovered that zodiac constellation lore used cryptographic techniques to convey metaphorically the notion of explosive matter-energy creation.’® Later, in 1979, | discovered that the constellations of Sagittarius and Scorpius used pointers—Sagittarius's arrow and Scorpio's stinger—to designate the centre of our galaxy, indicating it as the site of this explosive outburst. In particular, the Sagittarius arrow pointer encoded a prehistoric date.* Ancient myth specifies that Sagittarius is shooting at the heart of the Scorpion, represented by the star Antares (Alpha Scorpius). But the arrow shaft presently is not properly directed at Antares, since the stars outlining the shaft have moved considerably over the millennia. By specifying this sighting trajectory, the Sagittarius myth would be challenging future scientists with knowledge of the slow movements of the stars (so-called stellar proper motion) to determine the important past date when this arrow pointer was correctly aimed. As | discovered, this date turns out to be about 13,860 BC. Since this same arrow indicator is pointing out the location of the centre of our galaxy (to within 0.3 degrees of arc) and is also a key part of an encoded message referring to an explosive outburst, | naturally concluded at that time that the astrological zodiac is attempting to tell us that a galactic core explosion began to bombard our solar system around the time of that past date. This ancient zodiac cipher provided me with the initial impetus to investigate the superwave phenomenon as the subject for my PhD thesis. Understand that, in 1979, the idea that a galactic core explosion may have affected our planet in such geologically recent times was the furthest thing from the minds of astronomers or geologists. So, were it not for this zodiac message, | would have had no clue that this phenomenon might have occurred. Because of this uncertainty, | was carry- ing out my PhD research partly to see if there was any truth to the galactic explosion message that the zodiac cipher seemed to portray so clearly. The other reason for my investigation was that if the message were valid and evidence showed that our planet had indeed recently experienced a superwave, and that these bombardments occurred relatively frequently, then this discovery would be exceedingly important for human survival. For sure, it would be one of the most important discoveries of modern science. | do not stand alone in my interpretation of the zodiac cipher. Many have checked my conclusions. Also, some have themselves tried their hand at decipher- ing the zodiac cryptogram and have suc- ceeded. The first part of the cipher is presented at the Sphinx Stargate website (www.etheric.com) in the form of a puz- zle which has become a popular chal- lenge for websurfers to decode. It helps to have a familiarity with general systems theory concepts. Of course, there will always be scep- tics who will be unable to see that the zodiac signs do in fact present a sophisti- cated astronomical warning message. But, the superwave theory has made many a priori predictions which later were validated by me and others. Considering also that the theory has been successful at accounting for observations in over seven scientific disciplines, the idea that | hit upon this theory just by luck seems a bit far-fetched. Moreover, while a sceptic might argue about the interpretation of the zodiac's symbolism, the date indicated by the Sagittarius arrow trajectory is quite unequivocal, being based on simple SCORPIUS astrometry. Certainly, it is not just luck that 21 years later we discovered that this arrow indicator date coincides with the time of a major astronomical event—an immense solar expulsion, unprecedented in the past 50,000 years, which heralded the beginning of the global warming which eventually ended the last ice age.
