Types of Planets.





Chthonian Planets. 

Chthonian planets are celestial objects revolving close to a star. which were originally gas giants, but had their helium and hydrogen atmospheres stripped away by high temperatures emanating from their respective nearby stars. leaving behind a metallic and rocky core. There are no chthonian planets in our solar system, but there are several such planets that have been observed including Kepler-57b and Kepler-52b.


In Greek, Etruscan, Hittite and Dogon mythology these planets were linked an ancient type of demon noted for high intelligence and lost knowledge. 


The Carbon Planet. 

A carbon planet is believed to have a higher concentration of carbon than oxygen in its composition. Such planets have cores made of iron or steel, characteristic to terrestrial planets. The surface of these planets is believed to be covered by liquid or frozen hydrocarbons with a layer of graphite or diamonds several miles thick beneath the surface.


The Gas Dwarf.

A gas dwarf is a celestial body with a solid core but covered by a thick atmosphere made up of helium, hydrogen and other volatile gases. The gas dwarf is similar in composition to the gas giant planets and only differs in size. One example of a gas dwarf is Kepler-138d which is an extrasolar planet.




The Gas Giant. 

Gas giants are planets which are mainly made up of helium and hydrogen and other volatile compounds. These planets, which exist in immense sizes, are some of the largest known planets. Our solar system has two planets that are classified as gas giants, and these are Saturn and Jupiter. These planets are believed to have a molten rocky core. However, the properties of the compounds that exist in the cores of these gas giants are poorly understood due to the great temperatures and pressure.





The Hippo Goddess Associated: Divine Protection, Motherhood, Nurturing Sacred Element: Water Culture: Egyptian/Kemetic Representations: Tawaret, Ipet, Behoth The female hippopotamus was respected as a fierce protector of her young and the embodiment of the life-giving power of water Several hippopotamus galaxies are known such as Ipet, Reret an Taweret but these are probably aspects of the same goddess. This goddess could also manifest herself in dual or group forms. As Taweret the great one she was usually shown with a combination of hippopotamus lion crocodile and human features. This monstrous form was a popular type of amulet for 2000 years and passed into other cultures as a protective genie. The Egyptian saw hippopotami as water pigs rather than water horses so Reret sow. This provides a link to the Sky goddess Nut who also had a sow form. All manifestations of the hippopotamus goddess were associated with the watery region of the Sky, the earth, and the underworld. She was sometimes equated with Hathor Mehet-Weret the cow goddess who represented the fertile aspect of the primeval waters. In the secret crypts of the temple of Ipet at Karnak the hippopotamus goddess was said to give birth to a solar form of Osiris who rose again as Amun- RA. In the pyramid text the reborn King is nourished by the sweet milk of iPet. In the new Kingdom Taweret who was called mistress of pure water purified revived and nourished the dead. And was synonymous with the annual flooding of the Nile. There is a course a dark side to the hippopotamus goddess and one aspect or representation speaks of a hippopotamus goddess who devoured the souls of those who fell the judgment of Osiris she was a mix of hippopotamus lion and crocodile. Biblical notations indicate that the Behemoth was a great Hippo. Hippopotamus constellation shown in Egyptian Sky map Taweret and other deities eternally stand over Set’s bull form keeping him in check.

Ghana, - Pre-Colonial History

Modern-day Ghana, , consists primarily of the former Gold Coast.


The region of modern Ghana has been inhabited for several thousand years. The Gold Coast was a part of the western division of the great empire of the Emperor of Benin, which extended from Benin up to the river Gambia, and that it was governed by kings appointed by the Emperor.

The historical kingdom of Benin was established in the forested region of West Africa in the 1200s C.E.


Artists of the Benin Kingdom were well known for working in many materials, particularly brass, wood, and ivory. They were famous for their bas-relief sculptures, particularly plaques, and life-size head sculptures. The plaques typically portrayed historical events, and the heads were often naturalistic and life size.


Its rulers were renowned for their wealth in gold, the opulence of their courts, and their warrior-hunting skills. They were also masters of the trade in gold, which drew North African merchants to the western Sudan. The military achievements of these and later western Sudanic rulers and their control over the region's gold mines constituted the nexus of their historical relations with merchants and rulers of North Africa and the Mediterranean.


The Gold Coast was the name for a region on the Gulf of Guinea in West Africa that was rich in gold, petroleum, sweet crude oil and natural gas.


The Kingdom fell to British invasion in 1897.


The history of the Gold Coast before the last quarter of the 15th century is derived primarily from oral tradition that refers to migrations from the ancient kingdoms of the western Soudan (the area of Mauritania and Mali). The Gold Coast was renamed Ghana upon independence in 1957 because of indications that present-day inhabitants descended from migrants who moved south from the ancient kingdom of Ghana.


The Beliefs of the Youruba people, are a prevalent belief that remains strong throughout the region. From these people, we get mythology of Oshun, Yemoja and Ogun, the other Orishas.


The Orishas were unique reflections of human beliefs. They were beings of the Earth, and reflect the forces of nature. They were centrally tied to the ascension of humans to a divine state of existence.



The brutality of the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade has spread the belief in these deities to the West taking various forms in the Caribbean, South America, and the American South. 


The Orishas are still venerated to this day hidden underneath the canvass of forced religions. Their following thrives as do the seeds stolen from the land.


Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky. Sirius is a binary star consisting of a main-sequence star of spectral type A0 or A1, termed Sirius A, and a faint white dwarf companion of spectral type DA2, termed Sirius B. The distance between the two varies between 8.2 and 31.5 astronomical units as they orbit every 50 years.



Sirius appears bright because of its intrinsic luminosity and its proximity to the Solar System. At a distance of 2.64 parsecs, the Sirius system is one of Earth's nearest neighbours. Sirius is gradually moving closer to the Solar System, so it will slightly increase in brightness over the next 60,000 years. After that time, its distance will begin to increase, and it will become fainter, but it will continue to be the brightest star in the Earth's night sky for the next 210,000 years.


Sirius A is about twice as massive as the Sun  and has an absolute visual magnitude of +1.42. It is 25 times more luminous than the Sun,but has a significantly lower luminosity than other bright stars such as Canopus or Rigel. 


The system is between 200 and 300 million years old.  It was originally composed of two bright bluish stars. The more massive of these, Sirius B, consumed its resources and became a red giant before shedding its outer layers and collapsing into its current state as a white dwarf around 120 million years ago.


Sirius is known colloquially as the "Dog Star", reflecting its prominence in its constellation, Canis Major (the Greater Dog). The heliacal rising of Sirius marked the flooding of the Nile in Ancient Egypt and the "dog days" of summer for the ancient Greeks, while to the Polynesians, mostly in the Southern Hemisphere, the star marked winter and was an important reference for their navigation around the Pacific Ocean.


The discovery of this star system is found in antiquity having been documented by the ancient ancestors of the Dogon tribe of Southern Mali.


In Kemetic beliefs this star constellation is the celestial home of the NTRS. The Ennead who came to Earth teach mankind sacred knowledge. When we speak of Auset, Hathor and Set we are speaking on those born under this star.
