A row of huge stones stood some 4,000 years ago
just two miles from Stonehenge, dwarfing the iconic stone circle. Dubbed
"Superhenge," the site is five times bigger than the iconic stone
circle and lies buried three feet beneath a thick, grassy bank at a Stone-Age
enclosure known as Durrington Walls. "We're looking at one of the largest
stone monuments in Europe and it has been under our noses for something like
4,000 years," Vince Gaffney, chair in Landscape Archaeology and Geomatics
at the University of Birmingham, said. "We don't think there's anything
quite like this anywhere else in the world. This is completely new and the
scale is extraordinary," he said. Gaffney announced the finding at the
opening of the ongoing British Science Festival. Sept.8 http://news.discovery.com/history/archaeology/superhenge-found-buried-near-stonehenge-photos-150908.htm
The news of
"Superhenge" comes to us just a day before the Waning Crescent Moon.
A chart for the Moon phase at Durrington has Jupiter-Neptune on the horizon
axis and TNP Admetus on the MC. Neptune is conjunct the star Gamma (γ)
Aquarius, Sadalachbia. This was the “lucky star of hidden things and hiding
places” so that Sadachbia is about serendipitous discoveries. A keyword for Jupiter is “large” and that for
Admetus is “stone” so that putting the pieces together we can already see the
possibility of the surprising discovery.
The
Ascendant and Jupiter are in tropical
Virgo. About this area Diana Rosenberg writes:
Mercury, ruler of Virgo brings an obsessive,
probing curiosity. Many here are dedicated to search and research,
investigating through science, religion, the occult, philosophy, history, invention,
archaeology or art, the purpose of mankind’s sojourn on Earth, and the secrets
of the Earth itself. The Sun and Mercury were here when Folsom points,
12,000-year-old spearheads were discovered in New Mexico in 1927, Venus
and South Node in 1914 when the Trois
Freres Cave with prehistoric art,
including a figure called “The Sorcerer”was discovered in the Pyrenees, Mars at
the 1985 Libra Ingress: a diver working 120 feet down off Cape Morgiou, south
of Marseilles discovered an underwater cave with prehistoric art; and in 2000 a
speleologist discovered the 25,000-year-old Cussac Paleolithic cave etchings,
Saturn at the 1861 Aries Ingress: stoneworkers at Solnhofen, Germany exhumed an
Upper Jurassic dinosaur fossil with wings and feathers: dubbed archaeopteryx,”
it is one of earliest known specimens of a bird.
On the MC is
the TNP Admetus [29ta] amid stars of Eridanus. Eridanus was an ancient celestial river. As a
symbol, a river relates to the creative power of nature and time and everything
transitory: the flux of the world and the irreversible passage of time. Unlike earthly rivers, Eridanus is depicted
flowing upstream symbolizing a return to the past. A reference to
archaeological finds is, therefore, quite appropriate under stars of Eridanus. Diana
Rosenberg writes that:
Pluto was here in 1879 when the Altimira
prehistoric cave paintings were discovered at Santillana-del-Mar, Spain; Uranus
at the discovery of the cave paintings
at Lascoux in 1940, and a lunar eclipse here in 1984 one month before the cave
paintings at Vallon-Pont-d’Arc were discovered.
