VELIKOVSKY, AND THE 3,600 SIGNATURE
Who was Immanuel Velikovsky?
He was a peer of Einstein, and they played chess together often.
In fact, when Einstein died, he was in the process of reading his friend Velikovsky’s book, Earth in Upheaval, as he was found sprawled over this book, laid open on his desk, when he died.
Or perhaps there was something particularly upsetting, in the book.
Einstein was aware of periodic global cataclysms, the puzzle as to why they occurred, an issue he and Velikovsky debated, apparently.
Einstein espoused Hapgood’s sliding crust theory, as an explanation for wandering poles, stating this was the best explanation for what the Earth stands in evidence of.
Sliding crust, periodic cataclysms?
If this sounds like pole shift caused by the periodic passage of the Planet of the Crossing, aka Nibiru or Planet X, that’s exactly what everyone was looking at and trying to puzzle out.
But at the time, they were only suspecting a passing planet might have caused the chaos, because folklore reported this had been sighted.
During the era of Einstein and Velikovsky, knowledge of Planet X was not yet in available.
It was discovered in 1983 by NASA and JPL, and Sitchin’s translations of ancient Summerian documents, detailing their knowledge of the Planet of the Crossing, Nibiru, passing through every 3,600 years, had not yet been done.
Thus, Einstein and Velikovsky puzzled, looking at the evidence the Earth provided.
Very interesting history. I had no idea. Thanks!
