✨Basque Goddess Mari Chariot
Mari, the basque goddess, is often depicted rising through the sky in a chariot pulled by horses (a bit like Apollo and Orion Chariot?).
As suggested (in a previous post), what if the war of heaven started in Orion because this area was actually representing the Divine Feminine? 'They' went there for harvesting the Flame of Creation (Nebula M42) – the Hearth of the Sky – the Cosmic Womb of the Mother to create distortions which had reflected throughout many galaxies.
This being kept in mind; the Dogon concept of the chariot of Orion, and the mythical chariot wheel that is associated in many traditions with the grand processional cycle of rotation of the stars, was known as the Barnard’s Loop .
Barnard’s Loop is an ionized molecular cloud formed about 2 million years ago in a supernova explosion. It is centered on the Orion Nebula in the shape of a sacred Golden Mean spiral. The vertical axis here starts in Meissa (Orion’s head) and runs through Alnilam (middle belt star), and M43/M42 (Orion Nebula). Its diameter is about 300 light years and its distance is about 1,600 light years.
We see the significance of Sirius, Orion, and Barnard’s Loop reflected in nearly every ancient creation tradition we are studying, the symbolism that relates to Barnard’s Loop has generally not been recognized for what the Dogon claim it to be. Nonetheless, we see that the concept of a cosmic wheel, the notion of a chariot, and references to the wheel of a chariot are quite evident among the myths of many ancient cultures.
Likewise, the concept of a triad or trinity, as found in Christianity, is central to many of the later religions of the world. It seems likely that the concept is rooted in archaic symbolism that relates to ascension and to domes.
Griaule and Dieterlen write, “Thus in stellar space, the Chariot is the symbol of Amma’s seat; it surrounds atanu, the Belt, otherwise known as the three ‘deputies.’”
When the Dogon speak of the belt stars of Orion as deputies, a word that for the Egyptians means “to rule in place of another,” the unspoken implication is that they consider the stars to be deputies of the two binary stars of Sirius, the sunlike star that they call sigi tolo (star of the Sigui festiva)) and the dense dwarf star po tolo (star of deep beginning). Scientists also consider this dwarf star to be the remnant of a supernova, perhaps the very same event that is credited with having formed Barnard’s Loop.
The Dogon associate Barnard’s Loop with the stars of Sirius, one of which, the dwarf star Sirius B, is also thought by astronomers to be the remnant of a supernova. For the Dogon, these stars constitute a local cosmic center, by whose influence the stars in our region of the universe are understood to somehow maintain their proper positions.
Both Barnard’s Loop and the massive dwarf star Sirius B are thought to have been the product of a supernova, and so the suggestion is that a single event may have created both structures. From that perspective, Sirius B would be the hub of the wheel and therefore the likely site of the macrocosmic gate.
In accordance with the traditional symbolism of the Giza pyramids, Barnard’s Loop is part of the Orion nebula. Barnard’s Loop measures 440 light years by 280 light years, the very same dimensions in light years as the cubit measurements of the Great Pyramid. The light that is emitted by Barnard’s Loop is so very weak that it can only be imaged through time-lapse photography (some researchers suggest that the loop can be faintly seen in a very blackened night sky). When it is successfully imaged, its appearance takes the familiar shape of a spiraling coil, one that encircles the belt stars of Orion.
The Dogon say that our region of space is regulated by the hub of this wheel, and descriptions given from the Buddhist perspective suggest that the binary stars of Sirius constitute that hub. Based on descriptions and diagrams given by researcher Snodgrass, we also believe that the Buddhist concept of ascension in the macrocosm centers on the Orion belt stars, Barnard’s Loop, and the Sirius stars.
The concept of time, as it is understood in Buddhism, is alternately represented as a wheel (sometimes referred to as the Dharma Wheel) and so is configured from one perspective as an oscillation.
The wheel itself is associated with a chariot and so is linked cosmologically with the macrocosmic spiral of Barnard’s Loop, a structure that the Dogon refer to as the Chariot of Orion. Such an association is also in keeping with the idea that spiraling energy becomes the conveyer of mass and time frame between the two universes.
