Etymology of Star

Isis is equivalent to the Babylonian Ishtar, who is also Aset, Astarte, and Ashteroth, from the root word Aster which means "star" in the Aramic (Hebrew) language. That is where the words astronomer - they are interested in the arrangements of stars and other celestial bodies, astrology - assesses the influence of planets and stars on human events, astronaut - a sailor among the stars, aster - a star-shaped flower, asterisk * - a star-shaped symbol, etc. come from. The words disaster and disastrous also comes from aster and astron both meaning "star."

According to Word Power Made Easy by Norman Lewis it is said that in ancient times, stars ruled human destiny; any misfortune or calamity, therefore, happened to someone because the stars were in opposition. The prefix dis- means against and aster is the star.

Ostrich People

In Zimbabwe, there is a tribe known as the Ostrich People (aka Vadoma), who speak of an extraterrestrial craft that landed there over 200 years ago. Their population is about 100 and whenever they have children, they are born, (like them), with two-toed feet (photo).

Every year they go to the forest to a silver dome that has been smashed and covered by the forest plants. They undress and coat themselves in a glowing silver paint and dance until the break of day. This is done in remembrance of when their ancestors came in a "large spinning sun that had fallen from the sky."

Good & Bad

Good and bad are not absolute, we call one end of the scale good and the other bad, or one end good and the other evil, or god and the devil, jinn and angels, according to the use of the terms. A thing is less good than the thing higher in the scale; so you have your god is up in heaven and the devil is down in hell. Here's where the big white lie of trickery comes in, think.

Hell is full of fire and fire is light so light or white is evil and the devil. Also think, and if god is up in the sky beyond the stars, then he is in darkness so black and dark is good. The trick has been played on you. It's all the reverse. The light is evil the dark is good. But that "less good" thing, in turn is "more good" than the thing next below it, and so on, the "more or less" being regulated by the position on the scale. Up is dark, down is light, hell's fire.
