CRONUS : Greek Titan king of heaven, god of time ; mythology ; pictures : KRONOS, SATURN. Cronus. Ruler of the Titans in Ancient Greek mythology Mythology[edit] Only Cronus was willing to do the deed, so Gaia gave him the sickle and placed him in ambush.[4] When Uranus met with Gaia, Cronus attacked him with the sickle, castrating him and casting his testicles into the sea.
From the blood that spilled out from Uranus and fell upon the earth, the Gigantes, Erinyes, and Meliae were produced. The testicles produced a white foam from which the goddess Aphrodite emerged. For this, Uranus threatened vengeance and called his sons Titenes[a] for overstepping their boundaries and daring to commit such an act. Cronus learned from Gaia and Uranus that he was destined to be overcome by his own sons, just as he had overthrown his father. Rhea secretly gave birth to Zeus in Crete, and handed Cronus a stone wrapped in swaddling clothes, also known as the Omphalos Stone, which he promptly swallowed, thinking that it was his son.

Society As A Cult Structure. The New Oxford American Dictionary defines a cult as a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object.
Whenever we hear the word, fringe groups come to mind such as Heaven’s Gate, in which members committed mass-suicide so that their souls could catch a ride on a comet back to their home planet, or Scientology, a multi-billion dollar, celebrity touting organization whose mythology tells that our bodies are comprised of the souls of aliens who were killed in a holocaust by an ancient intergalactic warlord named Xenu. Going back to the basic definition of cult, however, a cult is simply defined as a system of devotion to a particular figure or object. That object of devotion could be an abstract figure, such as a god or deity, or something more material, say, money. Though the objects of devotion can vary widely, cults all have certain characteristics in common: Those characteristics are: 1. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Cult of Saturn - Rothschild Three city state Empire of the City. Brotherhood of Saturn. Symbol of the Fraternitas Saturni Fraternitas Saturni (lat.: "Brotherhood of Saturn") is a German magical order, founded on Easter 1928 by Eugen Grosche aka Gregor A.
Gregorius and four others. It is one of the oldest continuously running magical groups in Germany.[1] The lodge is, as Gregorius states, "concerned with the study of esotericism, mysticism, and magic in the cosmic sense".[2] Today its purpose is in working on the spiritual evolution of humanity by means of development and advancement of the individual being. This is to be attained by mental and ethical schooling of the personality and complete mastery of esotericism and occultism. The FS adopts a system of degrees, ending with the 33rd as highest degree to reach this goal. History[edit] Origins: Pansophia Lodge and the Weida Conference[edit] The Fraternitas Saturni was founded in the wake of the so-called "Weida Conference" in 1925. The conference was not a smooth event and Traenker withdrew his support of Crowley. Aythos.
The Worship of Saturn. Saturn, so active in the cosmic changes, was regarded by all mankind as the supreme god.
Seneca says that Epigenes, who studied astronomy among the Chaldeans, “estimates that the planet Saturn exerts the greatest influence upon all the movements of celestial bodies.” (1) On becoming a nova, it ejected filaments in all directions and the solar system became illuminated as if by a hundred suns. It subsided rather quickly and retreated into far-away regions. Peoples that remembered early tragedies enacted in the sky by the heavenly bodies asserted that Jupiter drove Saturn away from its place in the sky. Before Jupiter (Zeus) became the chief god, Saturn (Kronos) occupied the celestial throne. The cult of Osiris and the mysteries associated with it dominated the Egyptian religion as nothing else. Osiris’ dominion, before his murder by Seth, was remembered as a time of bliss.
And that Horus grew up to avenge his father by engaging Seth in mortal combat. Saturn (mythology) Saturn (Latin: Saturnus) is a god in ancient Roman religion, and a character in myth.
Saturn is a complex figure because of his multiple associations and long history. He was the first god of the Capitol, known since the most ancient times as Saturnius Mons, and was seen as a god of generation, dissolution, plenty, wealth, agriculture, periodic renewal and liberation. In later developments he came to be also a god of time. His reign was depicted as a Golden Age of plenty and peace.
