Five Unlucky Days


Many tens of thousands of years ago a supernova exploded in our galaxy. The brilliant blue light would have filled the ancient sky and would have rivaled the sun for dominance. As the image formed in the heavens a great blue light shined down on earth and people across the world gazed in amazement at their new god. Formed with a brilliant center and rings of expelled gas and dust this was the all seeing eye of god. Admiration, astonishment and fear griped the population as they tried to make sense of this miraculous happening. Stories were told of a great blue light, and then legends were formed of a blue eye in the sky, finally today we have only a myth that remains of a god called Horus.Eye Of Horus

While the ancients were initially aware of the brilliant blue light of a supernova explosion they were unaware of the resultant debris expelled until much later. Thousands of years passed and the blue eye in the sky faded and finally winked out completely. Gone was the vision of Horus however his essence remained. Traveling toward earth on a collision course was a vast amount of dust, gas and larger debris. It happened around 11,000BC, a peaceful time on earth. The golden age of enlightenment and harmony where man was one with nature, and himself. Cosmic forces, unleashed eons ago, arrived in the solar system to erase the records, the achievements, the civilizations of man. Horus reached out and touched the earth. Dust obscured the outer sky. Blown about by solar winds and gravitational flux this dust formed patterns and outlines painted on the heavens. Just like faces in the clouds the Watchers saw figures in the heavens and mapped their skeletons, the stars. Meteor showers followed with dazzling displays of cosmic fireworks on earth, other planets and the sun …and then came the comets.

Most were small. Local impacts like mini nukes exploding in the upper atmosphere. Brilliant lights and thunderous sounds …seen over continents and heard around the world. A continuous barrage lasting years and tarnishing this golden age …mankind was under siege. With ancient knowledge of magnetics, acoustics and with cooperative determination, fortified structures were built to withstand the attack. But there was one unlike the others. A giant snake in the sky. Close enough to block the sun as it slithered closer and closer as each year passed. Truly a devil. A sense of foreboding prevailed. Mankind had suffered many evils as the heavens cleared but one great evil remained. Man prayed to the savior and the sun began its battle with Satan. A celestial drama unlike any written, produced or directed before or since, man watched this heavenly battle knowing the outcome would be his to bear. Satan, the great serpent, was cast down and the 360 day year became 365.
