In what is quite an amazing discovery, scientists
have confirmed that a bracelet found in Siberia is 40,000 years old. This makes
it the oldest piece of jewelry ever discovered, and archeologists have been
taken aback by the level of its sophistication. The bracelet was discovered in a site called
the Denisova Cave in Siberia, close to Russia's border with China and Mongolia.
It was found next to the bones of extinct animals, such as the wooly mammoth,
and other artifacts dating back 125,000 years. The cave is named after the
Denisovan people — a mysterious species of hominins from the Homo genus, who
are genetically different from both Homo sapiens and Neanderthals. We know that
the Denisovans migrated out of Africa sometime after the first wave of Homo
erectus, and well before us, Homo sapiens. The Denisovans were unique in many
ways, having branched away from other humanoid ancestors some 1 million years
ago. Indeed, the recent discovery of a female Denisovan finger bone and various
teeth, shows that they had no morphological similarities to either Neanderthals
or modern humans. May 8 http://bit.ly/1cifGc2
The news
comes to us at the Waning Gibbous Moon phase of May 8 also referred to as the
Disseminating Moon phase. A chart for this phase drawn for Denisova is shown
here. The Sun [17ta] is conjunct epsilon 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. Discovery of ancient
artifacts are quite appropriate under stars of Eridanus.
The Moon is placed on the MC and aligns with Venus-Hades-Cupido.
Martha Wescott gives us the following delineations [1]:
Hades-Cupido: Ancient or antique art
or objects.
Hades-Venus: Ancient or primitive art.
If now we add
the star backdrop for Uranus [18] on the Ascendant and the Sun [17ta] the picture is complete.
Uranus is conjunct lambda Andromedae [18ar] in Princess Andromeda’s right hand
while the Sun[17ta] is conjunct Ruchbah, delta Cassipoeiae [18ta] in the the constellation of Queen Cassipoeia
shown as in the image above decorating herself with her ornaments.
"From Cassiope come the enhancement of
beauty and devices for adorning the body: from gold has been sought the means
to give grace to the appearance; precious stones have been spread over head,
neck, and hands and golden chains have shone on snow-white feet. "
