Astrological sect, Solar and Lunar Cults, The Eddas and the Bacchae

This video ties together the astrological doctrine of sect, which describes 2 “sects” (cults) of planets. This is a technique in astrology that gives planets more power when they are in a sign that harmonizes with the sect. It is my contention that the “sects” were actually referring to the Aesir and the Vanir, the solar and lunar societies of deep ancient history.

The prominent historical figure who represents the Aesir or the Solar Cult was King Thor, or Adam, a Sumerian King according to LA Waddell, who translated the original texts which Snorri Sturlesson allegedly mistranslated in the 12th century in Iceland. The Serpent Priestess, Gulveig, Gulli or Kali was the leader of the Vanir Lunar Cult, and these forces came into conflict and war around 3350 BC. King Thor vanquished the Lunar cult but did not genocide or demolish them.

In 405 BC, Euripides wrote The Bacchae, a tragic play about a King Pentheus of Thebes, whose kingdom is becoming infiltrated by a Bacchic cult, led by Dionysus himself. The Bacchae are the inheritors of the tradition of the Vanir. Pentheus is an inheritor of Thor’s solar beliefs. Euripides is describing the same conflict, only this time the Lunar tradition triumphs.
